Roseburg Youth
En Route Home
After Night Here
' Salem police, alarmed by the
current rise of juvenile "gangster
ism, might have prevented a 15-year-old
Roseburg youth from be
coming delinquent Thursday..
The youth, caught trying to sell
two low priced cigarette lighters
he had "taken from a local drug
store, is on his way home today
after spending a night in the Mar
ion County juvenile cell. :
The boy claimed he ad taken
the lighters only to get money to
get home to Roseburg and it was
his first theft. He was a run-away
from a school in Portland. Since
the drug store manager didn't
want to prefer charges, police de
cided to give him a chance. They
called tne parents in Roseburg
who sent bus fare last night.
Police put him on the bus early
this morning, a scared but wiser
boy, who probably won't ever try
stealing again.

Total replacement damage to 10

Sweetland Raps Agencies for
Lack of Industry Development
PENDLETON to Monroe
Sweetland, state senator 'and De
mocratic national committeeman,
asserted Thursday night that state
agencies bad failed almost com
pletely in the move to develop
Oregon industrially.
Solons Said
Angry About
Bowie Choice
The Oregon Development Com
mission is ineffective because of
"strangulation" by established
industrial interests. Sweetland told
the newly formed Umatilla County
Democratic Club.
The commission has failed to
push investigations into industrial"
developments "because it might
disturb somebody's present advan
tages," he said.
There has been no effective
promotion to bring industry to
Oregon, Sweetland said, adding
that the commission "doesn't dare
propose the establishment of the
smallest public power district" in
the face of disapproval by private
power companies.
He also said that on this seven
man commission, only one person
is from Eastern Ore-op. "t " i
